"the crowd is enthusiastic. much like obama's audiences in recent weeks. but they look different. they are noticeably whiter and older." republicans and more conservative candidates have had an advantage with older voters. john mccain, even as he was getting clobbered, he won among early voters. the point about whiter voters is very important to republicans this year. in the last 20 years, this is the percentage of the electorate voting for president that is white. so you see the
